HBO's fantasy series Game of Thrones is getting an aftershow dubbed After the Thrones, which will premiere on April 25, one day after the sixth season debuts; and the news has caused a sort of frenzy among the fans.

The much awaited sixth season of the world's most popular fantasy series is all set to premiere on April 24 on HBO and for the very first time it will be accompanied by an aftershow which will tell you all about the making.

After the Thrones will feature interviews with the producers and various stars of the show as well as celebrity guests.

A new online feature from HBO partner Bill Simmons, the post-show series will only be available HBO Now, HBO Go and HBO On-Demand services.

There's still a possibility that it would wind up on HBO at a later date.

The companion series will recap the latest episode, explaining the who, what, when and where, exploring the complicated politics and history of thrones, and offering absurd and not-so-absurd theories about future episodes. Greenwald and Ryan will discuss the show as only they can.

After the Thrones is constructed similar to such shows as Talking Dead (for The Walking Dead) and Talking Bad (for Breaking Bad).

Simmons is the founder of Grantland.com, in which Ryan and Greenwald hosted a podcast of Watch the Throne.
